Thanks for the video. I am currently constantly on the move, always looking for the next place to live, next language to learn, next culture to experience. I am 27 and so far have lived in Germany, the US, Chile, Spain, Norway and Taiwan and am moving to Hungary in January. But I have noticed that no matter how much I love making all these new connections with people and feeling like I'm a part of a new, exciting community, it fades away quickly as soon as I'm gone. No matter how much I try to hold onto it, in the end my friends are going to keep living their lives and the community I was a part of is going to keep existing without me. It has made me feel more distanced even when I'm with people. (Of course I keep in touch and visit, but it's simply not the same as spending lives together) So I'm reevaluating what I want now. And it's nice to watch this video of someone who obviously understands how rewarding and lonely it feels to move around a lot :) "How, not where." I will remember that and implement it for my year in Hungary :) My mom said that life is like a fractal. No matter where you are, and how broad or detailed your portion of life is, in the end all lives are rich, complex, hard and filled with all kinds of emotions. Feels parallel.
Thank you for sharing this overview of what has undoubtedly been a life filled with unique and exciting stories! I appreciate your authenticity. Where in Spain did you live? And Chile!? That was the first country that caught my eye, yet I still haven't made it there. I totally empathize with this feeling of yours. One of the things that has most surprised me about travel has been the ability to step in to so many lives in such a brief period of time. I think our human curiosity makes this sort of lifestyle incredibly addicting, leading many of us in constant search of the next perspective, yet inevitably longing for the warm familiarity of past connections. Ironically, it seems like the propensity toward nostalgia is often accompanied by a fierce curiosity and desire for novelty. So, what can we do? If you find an answer, tell me :)
¡Hombre Tyler! ¡Qué bueno saber de ti de nuevo! Me alegro mucho de verte tan bien. Supongo que te estás haciendo mayor y empiezas a ver las cosas desde otra perspectiva y con más madurez. So it's life mate!
Hombre cuanto tiempo sin noticias tuyas. Me alegro sigas bien.Hay personas que no se han movido de la casa en que nacieron, cultivaron la tierra de sus padres y abuelos , día tras día, no viajaron mas allá de la ciudad grande mas cercana ... y si les preguntas te dirán que tuvieron una vida excitante y maravillosa... Ya lo decía aquel escritor, no recuerdo su nombre, "hay otros mundos... pero están en este". Saludos y sigue contándonos tu camino.
@@Tyler_Teacher Bueno, espero volver en un par de años, ahora vivo en Peru desde hace 7. Siempre quise vivir en sitios diferentes pero por primera vez, tal vez por la edad, ya no estoy interesado en empezar en otro lugar. Cambiar de lugar no es facil y lleva mucha burocracia (tramites de residencia, trabajo, sanidad...). Ahora busco establecerme en un pequeño pueblo (tal vez sur de Francia, Portugal o España) y llevar otra vida. Me he dado cuenta que los tiempos de aventureros romanticos ya pasaron. En esencia el mundo se ha uniformizado y el dia a dia de las personas es muy similar alli donde vayas. Saludos!
Move to Prague was a mistake. From my point of view. I thought you had a social life on plasencia. With lots of friend and a rural life style that you liked.
